My mean greens.
Not exactly the fastest growers. Not in my tank anyway.

2/13/07 - 25+ polyps

After a little re-arranging.

175w 14k Hamilton with a small 19w NO actinic for a little dusk/dawn lighting. I know thats not a heck of alot. It does equal out to a little over 5w per gallon.

These zoos are my fastest grower for some reason. I feed my corals everyday with phytoplankton and dose lugols every otherday or so. I purchased a frag of 20 polyps and it tripled in just 3 months. I actually just traded 20 polyps of this last weekend for some blue speckled red mushrooms.

Try feeding and see if it will improve growth.

BTW, I have a 20g with the cheapest lighting fixture- an Oddeysea 2x65w PC

I am new to the hobby (4+ months), but have already seen how some zoo's grow much faster than others.

What a great thing! Once you get a collection it is easy to frag and trade to get even more. Almost like an investment that ripens with time and sweet reward

Thanks for the compliments all.

Jeff, maybe I will try feeding them a little more. I would like to see a little more growth out of these.
